Problems solved by technology

Although these types of games tend to enhance player interest and prolong play at tables, players may also take excessive amounts of time in play of such games while making decisions.
Players also sometimes make poor strategic decisions.
Despite the fact that casinos and gaming jurisdictions have strict laws and regulations prohibiting almost all types of mechanical or electronic devices at gaming tables and gaming apparatus, strategy cards are tolerated by operators because they tend to speed up play and offer players no real advantage that could not be obtained by simple memorization of a set of Strategies.
Although each of these systems provides some ability to inform players of best strategies in the play of games, there are still weaknesses in the existing systems.
In addition, players are ordinarily wary of advice given by casinos and personnel with regard to playing and wagering strategy, and particularly information given by processors on video displays because they suspect the advice is biased towards the house.

Abstract

A playing card gaming system is disclosed that provides the player with an opportunity to withdraw a game play decision that is less advantageous to a player than at least one other play decision. The system includes a player interface that displays a prompt when a less advantageous decision is made. The display may include an area that provides the dealer with a visual indication that the player is being asked to confirm an election. A card delivery system with a playing card information reader provides card information to the system. A game processor determines if player elections are disadvantageous.
